First held in 1970 as the Pop, Blues & Folk Festival - when just 1,500 people attended - Glastonbury has grown to become a major event in the British cultural calendar, with most of the biggest names in music having played it at least once.
Last year over 200,000 enjoyed headline sets from Neil Young, Olivia Rodrigo and The 1975, along with hundreds of other bands playing countless stages of all sizes - and millions watched the extensive television coverage.
As part of the green ethos of organisers Michael and Emily Eavis, the event taking a break every five years to give the working farm some time to rejuvenate from the inevitable wear and tear caused - and this year was one such ‘fallow year’.
The resultant gap in 2026’s music festival calendar has, if anything, only increased speculation as to who will be topping the bill in 2027.
The tickets sold out in munites last month, despite not a single act being announced.
If you managed to bag your spot at Worthy Farm, here are the artists you are most likely to see, according to William Hill.
